Pleased Gilbert has been rehomed to someone who will take care of him properly. They do make lovely pets but, as with all animals, a lot of responsibility goes with ownership. Enjoy your new life Gilbert - happy rooting! XX

you also need a holding number to keep them, can Animal health not trace the owners by his tag number as this should have been transferred when he was sold ? Hes VERY cute !

Yep - you need a licence to keep pigs as you do other common livestock. So therefore you need a licence if you are either a buyer or seller.

Helper Rachel has located the owner - or rather the former owner - and the little pig is called Gilbert. Gilbert was sold in September to people who appear to have 'lost' him. Somebody is suggesting that you need a licence to sell a Kune Kune. Anybody know about that ?
Unknown
Someone claiming to be his owner has turned up on Facebook.

Hope owner found or new home. This little piggy wont go to market then? (Veggie) Trotters xd.

I know someone who has 2 of these...I think in West Midlands.May take it on if no owner found.

sounds silly but has it been scanned for a chip? Pigs aren't routinely chipped as far as I'm aware but it might be worth giving it a scan (including the ears) just in case-AHO officers may already have done this but never assume anything! I wonder if it's a 'micro-pig' that turned out to be less than micro?
Unknown
Thanks, Badger. Who's lost a Kune Kune, then ?
Badger
This little piggy looks like a Kune Kune - they are usually quite hairy and have a toggle/tassel either side their face like a goat but not clear to see in picture. They are often kept as pets and are a joy to own. Hope he finds his way home soon or gets a nice new home. XX

Anyone who knows anything about this little pig should speak to the Animal Health Officers at Wrexham on 01978 292045. He will be rehomed after 10 January. Thanks to Wrexham.com for the photo and story.
